By My Side Lyrics & Chords By Lorrie Morgan

There's so much breakin' up
Folks who won't fall in love
Put up shelves, guard themselves
Build walls
And it makes me cry sometimes
'Cause people live lonely lives
They don't want to try
They don't want to live at all
But I'm not gonna be afraid
To give up my heart that way
'Cause I need you
I need you by my side
And I'm not gonna say I'm strong
Out here in this world alone
'Cause I need you
I need you by my side
And when you find someone
Someone you really love
It makes life easier to bear
But some folks live on their own
Shut themselves in at home
They never find out what love's all about
'Cause they're scared
But I'm not gonna be afraid
To give up my heart that way
'Cause I need you
I need you by my side
I'm not gonna say I'm strong
Out here in this world alone
'Cause I need you
I need you by my side
'Cause I need you
I need you by my side
